Lyrics

Strange things take place in my moondreams


as the lonely & loveless hours go by


your face takes its place in every moonbeam


moondreams bring thoughts gentle as a sigh.





Moondreams can be a sensation


moondreams may be fascination


love can be our destination


you and I can share this dream.



Wishing for you in my moondreams


as the lonely & loveless hours go by


will do until you can share all my dreams


moondreams - moondreams


moondreams brought by moonbeams in the sky.
